So, I completely switched to FOSS federated social networks toward the middle of 2020. I love the Fediverse, but nobody I know IRL seems to care at all about it in any capacity, so I’m basically just screaming into a void full of other FOSSheads. How do I reconcile this? How do we get our IRL peeps on the Fediverse?
Sorry. The best way to get IRL people into fediverse is choose a instance for them and share your (curated) follow list with them. Then you may encourage them with hey there’s this social media with chronological orders and strictly follow only lists. Try it out! Also most clients are absoulutely tracking free. So, you only share what you want. etc etc. Most importantly encourage not force them.
Nah, I’m sorry for being such a dick
No, it was just that people these days are so engrossed in social media, I realize it’s all manufactured want. I actually don’t need to know what others are doing if I don’t care about them, I actually can’t affect other countries socio-economic condition by watching news. People are just so engrossed in these stuff we actually aren’t getting anything done. I vented at the wrong time. But I really wish people understand these danger, maybe even a mandatory psychology education in addition to science, arts might be the solution or maybe not.
